Parkinson’s Disease is a movement disorder, so it makes sense that movement could help lower risk and manage symptoms. 🤷♀️
We’ll be breaking this down in more detail on our newsletter later this week. DM us your email and we’ll make sure you get a copy!

You’ve probably seen her face on TTAF socials, and you’ve maybe been lucky enough to meet her in person - the woman behind it all - Sam! 🤩
Sam grew up having a passion for working with older adults! After studying Health Science and Geriatrics, she knew she wanted to be the individual who created fun, engaging, and inspiring activities for the elderly. She worked several jobs within the senior living industry before deciding she wanted to work with the elderly on her own terms. That’s when the idea for TTAF was really born! “I knew I wanted to improve, challenge and create a fitness company that was fun, unique and creatively exciting for all participants!.. Being able to interact with members and see the positive impact TTAF has on them through a smile, comment, or laugh is VERY rewarding and FUN!!!”
Sam isn’t just a great instructor, she’s the ambitious leader behind every TTAF instructor you meet!

Physical inactivity slows the metabolism, weakens muscles and bones, and increases the risk of chronic illness. It is well known that it not only poses physical health concerns, but mental health issues as well.
Everyone reading this likely has a loved one, client, or facility resident who struggles with physical activity.
If I’m correct in that assumption, you may also be the solution to their struggle.
Through the Ages Fitness classes turn exercise into an experience. ✨ Instead of simply asking seniors to exercise, our theme-based method invites individuals to:
❇️ Move according to their ability
❇️ Socialize
❇️ Build confidence with repetition
❇️ Enjoy the music
❇️ Reminisce on common topics
❇️ Embrace FUN
Our instructors come from all backgrounds of experience, contact us to see if you’d be a good fit!
Back to School season! 📚 ✏️
Caregivers - this topic is excellent for memory recall because it taps into long-term memories! 🧠 💭
Ask open ended questions about favorite subjects, old friends, or even what they’d pack for lunch or do for recess! Share your memories as well to build connections and put less pressure on them.
💕 Connecting is what it’s all about, even if the conversation doesn’t go the direction you hope. Let it be fluid and curious! 💕
